Abstract

For more than a quarter of a century current-events has been taught successfully and with good results, in connection with other subjects; but as a separate subject it failed to get recognition for its true worth. It has proved popular to both teachers and students but has received little scientific investigation and encouragement at the hands of curriculum-builders and reorganizers. Theorists who have tried to work with it find it baffling for it is a difficult subject to classify. From year to year its content differs and it is everlastingly encroaching upon and overlapping various subjects. This makes it very hard to assign to a definite course.
